Abstract:
Conventional dental resins for crown and bridge fulfill ISO 10477 and ISO 10993 before clinical application. Although 3D printing or rapid prototyping (RP) for the fabrication of temporary crown and bridge have been proposed, a little studies were reported for 3D printing resin for temporary crown and bridge. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the physical properties (such as water sorption and solubility, color stability and flexural strength) of the various 3D printing temporary crown and bridge resin following the ISO 10477:2018 and estimate the effect of chemical composition of resin on the physical properties. Four resins approved by KFDA and 4 experimental resins developed by different manufacturer were tested in this study. Samples were prepared with DLP typed 3D Printer (G-Printer) and post-cured using UV-light Cure Unit (Cure M). Proper 3D printing and post-curing conditions were selected for different 3D printing resins. Each test was performed according to the ISO 10477 and results were statistically analyzed using Tukey-multiple comparison test (p=0.05). Only group-B did not satisfied the ISO requirement (< 40 µg/ mm³) in water sorption test, but 3 groups (C, E and F) showed high solubility which exceeds the ISO requirement (< 7.5 µg/mm³). For color stability, the color difference were detected at 5 groups (A, E, F, G and H). Group-D and F showed the low flexural strength and some building direction did not satisfied the ISO requirement (> 60 MPa). Resin components may affect the flexural strength, then user should check the components of 3D printing resin. Deficient degree of polymerization may lead to large water sorption, water solubility and color changes. Further study should be done comparison between specimens printed with specific 3D printer recommended by manufacturer and specimens used in this study.
